Never ever need proof...

Ok, so she raped me. Throw her in jail. No questions asked!

I once got into an argument with someone I admire (author) on Facebook when she made a similar comment. I told her, that I knew of a lot of false rape claims, that resulted in people getting lynched ( the Scottsboro Boys, the Rosewood Massacre, etc.). She still refused to budge, even though she admitted those were false allegations. I tried to reason with her, that if women would make false allegations when they knew the men would most likely be lynched, it stands to reason, many other women would make false allegations, when a lesser punishment was involved ( a mans reputation, incarceration, possible beating, etc.,), just to get back at some man they were angry about. Surely, those men deserved a chance to defend themselves! She ( who was not only an author, but a prosecutor in ny), unfriended me. It’s crazy. Women don’t live in a perpetual state of perfection & all men aren’t rapists & women beaters. I don’t understand how anyone with sons (or daughters) could believe such nonsense.

Evidence, due process, cross-examination, and legal representation are weapons of a white male patriarchy

I know this subreddit isn't really the place for this kind of discussion, but I think this gets to the real problem with the kind of wishy washy language used.

I think always believe the rape victim is true up to a point. As in do not be quick to dismiss a claim and do not automatically treat the victim as a liar.

BUT

This carries only as far as until it begins to impede on the accused rapist.

So basically believe them as far as giving them moral support and compassion, do NOT think that accusations alone are sufficient to convict. Also if you are a true friend, prepare the victim for the kind of scrutiny they will be under if they choose to press charges.

I was a a childhood rape victim. From age 5-13 I underwent some of the most horrific sex abuse you could imagine. I was repeatedly sexually tortured and abused by an older woman and no one believed me. What's worse I was suspended from school and at one point dropped off at an orphanage by my mother for fighting back because she couldn't imagine raising a boy who thought it was OK to hit a woman. There is way more to the story, but you get the point.

As an adult however I was also accused of rape by a girl who I had slept with twice. She was VERY much into it, in fact if anything I was raped as I never consented and wouldn't if I was asked, I simply felt like I couldn't say no without making this relatively unhinged girl feel even worse. She was not super attractive and she was an emotional basket-case. It is was EXTREMELY fortunate for me, that she got carried away with her story and I had evidence to disprove a lot of it. It very easily could have gone worse though.

I have been on both sides of this.
